What an exciting time! Why aren't we celebrating!? Anyway, here are some 2021 achillean book recs. Be Dazzled by Ryan La Sala… Continue reading 2021 Achillean Books

January Wrap-Up: WHO EVEN CARES
WOW, I THOUGHT DECEMBER WAS BAD. PRESIDENT-SANCTIONED INSURRECTION? MUTATED STRAINS OF COVID-19? A SECOND IMPEACHMENT? CAN WE PLEASE CATCH A BREAK? PLEASE?

"Trying," of course,… Continue reading January Wrap-Up: WHO EVEN CARES

Updated List of Comfort Reads
Ever have reading cravings? I have them all the time, especially under duress.

They weren't my usual go-tos and most of… Continue reading Updated List of Comfort Reads
